Electrolysis

Electrolysis is the only permanent method of hair removal due to the unique way in which electricity can remove hair.

The treatment involves inserting a fine probe into individual hair follicles to deliver an electric current that irreparably damages the follicle. The current causes existing hairs to fall out and prevents the follicle from producing hair in the future.

Under the guidance of our expert Electrolysis trainer, you will learn to perform this treatment safely during our short course.

Gain these skills:

• Establish priorities with clients
• Synthesise knowledge on skin and hair biology and electric currents
• Design, prepare and provide electrolysis treatment
• Review treatment and provide post-treatment advice 

You will achieve:

On successful completion of this course, students will receive a statement of attainment for the following nationally recognised units of competence:

• SHBBHRS004 - Provide hair reduction treatments using electrical currents (Release 1)
• SHBBINF001 - Maintain infection control standards
